The Louisiana Gentlemen Recipes -- Kane

Note:

Recipes were included as lagniappe in the five books
(plus a novella) of the Louisiana Gentlemen series, published 1998 – 2002.
Since that time, I've had hundreds of letters and emails about KANE, LUKE,
ROAN, CLAY, WADE and ADAM, the majority from people who had lost track of the
books but wanted the recipes again! Posting them here on the blog will make
them available once more for everyone. Slight adjustments have been made to the
originals for clarity and consistency.

FRUIT
DIP

Ingredients:

1 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened

1 cup powdered sugar

1 8-ounce can cream of coconut

Directions:

In a mixer, combine all ingredients and beat on
medium speed until smooth. Serve with fresh fruit such as strawberries, apple or
orange slices, large seedless grapes, pineapple chunks or melon.

Note:

Thickness of the dip may be adjusted by adding more
or less cream of coconut.
